A sudden destablization in the #1 gas producing region in the world can do that I reckon.

 

[Comrade Khan]

gas prices have pretty much nothing to do with us ever, its always at the mercy of the oil barons

@blaze can you kindly send all the poly psi majors to the politics chat room so I can talk about Dirty Work being better than I remember?

 

[Dakstang]

If you make it more expensive to do business, prices are going to go up. If you expect companies to take losses and not pass it on to the consume you are fucking nuts.

 

[Comrade Khan]

but yeah like i said, gas prices are like 90% decided by OPEC or wtv because they own the large majority of it. has nothing to do with the president of the day unless the president manipulates the free market and last time i checked that aint happening

sir. Im not gonna botch this pullout. Gotta ease into it

 

[Dakstang]

Just like 'raising the federal minimum wage!' would raise prices. Companies are not going to just say, "Shit oh well, guess we are taking a loss!"
